    All that hype and this is what we get out of GS and even the Spurs. I don't watch much of the regular season but every time I put on SC or whatever the GS players were talking up the meaningless record night after night. As defending champs they should of been resting up for what really matters. OKC just looks like a much better team. If Curry isn't making shots and not demanding double teams he isn't doing anything else to help the team.

    A healthy Cavs team (this time around) vs a very strong OKC team will be fun to watch.

    The "resting up" theory is totally stupid. Has nothing to do with that. Has much more to do with, like you said, OKC just looks like the much better team. OKC has raised their game to a level we have never seen before. They deserve all the credit in this series.

    Warriors don't look like the same team they were all year. Playing with a total lack of confidence. What made them lose their swagger? Even with OKC playing at the level they are rhe games should stll be close instead of the blowouts we are seeing.

    Spurs won many championships resting up...After a long championship season you have to rest up some. You can tell the Warriors are gassed and frustrated. Dormond's fancy scissor kicks are coming rest or no rest though.

    Match ups. Too big down low and on the perimeter. Too long to pass over as well.

    Saw a stat today...OKC has had the most success guarding GSW with their small lineup. Holding them to around 35% shooting.

    Under Armour stood to gain about $14 Billion in increase revenue if Golden State repeated as champs. I wonder if they hedged their bet with a very large wager on OKC.
